Hi Peter,
Thank you again for your input again.

Still no success.
I tried this time with -D__FD_SETSIZE with 2048 and 4096 and
I got a lot of compiler warning messages like:
/usr/include/bits/types.h:92: warning: `__FD_SETSIZE` redefined
so this proves that -D__FD_SETSIZE is the right args, but
chkspawn still says the same thing.
I was reading stuff on the net referenced from the Kernel docs
in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/ and didn't quite understand
all of it but gave me the impression that the recent linux
kernels are limited to 1024 descriptors.

This URI below gave me some references about giving the kernel
extra params through /proc/sys/fs/, which could be irrelevant
for all I know...

Well,
I think this is at the point where its not related directly
to qmail anymore so I should stop wasting everyones bandwidth.
If any one who knows what might be of this, I would
gladly like to have a discussion in private.
If any success, I will post just the results for the record.
I apologize, but also thank all of you.

I never dreamed going this far, but its very exciting.
I guess my first step towards kernel hacking starts here? :)
